Application Hang

[Ragepro]

Hello again I haven't seen anything yet on any Application Hang. I have a post either about UT3.exe error but I have that fixed now. Now I have an Application Hang error. When playing the campaign. It just started today. I have been playing the game for awhile now and haven't had any problems. I haven't changed anything or installed anything new. Just that I play for awhile and getting close to beating a mission and after I get killed the game freezes and I have to end task it to get out of it. It gives me the following error message:

I haven't searched the forum deep to see if anyone else has had this problem so if there is a post already can someone link it here so I can figure out why I'm getting this now.

Thanks for anyone who gives information about this.

For ATI users I found out that the game will work with CrossFire for awhile and then it will freeze up after that. I hope Epic is coming up with a patch to support the SLI in Nivida cards and CrossFire for ATI cards. I got CrossFire to help in performance in games which it does and makes the games fun with it enabled. But if you want to stop Application Hang ups and you have a CrossFire Chipest disable it and it should help out until ATI or Epic makes a fix for it.

Hello again now I have a problem with this Application hang up. I was able to get passed it by disabling CrossFire in the settings of the ATI Control Box. But now I was just playing the game with CrossFire disabled and got the error again. I can't play the game anymore without getting that error. Is anyone else having this problem? I would like to finish playing the campaign. Anyone's solution might help I just need to know what help fix theirs.

Error is:

Hi again,

I was able to get past a couple of missions in the campaign but I still get the Application Hang up. I have to keep changing settings to keep play but every new mission it stills freezes I can move my character around and extra.

I would still like to finish the campaign if I can anyone know if there is a fix for it or might have changed a setting that I missed?

I'm running the new 7.12 ATI drivers. If I play with crossfire on it freezes, if I play with crossfire off it freezes. I think it might be a FPS problem or and shader but not sure I have tried different things and still nothing working. The game freezes when I die in deathmatch games or freezes after awhile.

Generally the campaign-related crashes/hangs are fixed by editing the UTEngine.ini and setting:
pumpwindowmessageswhenrenderthreadstalled=true

I fixed my hangs by completely uninstalling my drivers with Driver Sweeper and then reinstalling the latest.

Well this might help some other ATI card users. In the ATI Catalyst Control Center besides enabling Support DXT texture formats. I also set the Stanard Settings in the 3D menu in advance mode to Balanced which you have to uncheck the Uses custom settings to change the sliding bar. I might help with UT3 freezing up too. I did for me on my Radeon X1600 cards running CrossFire. And I have the latest drivers Catalyst Version 8.1.
